SEEBED is a fishery technology research project for the Research Council of Norway where the primary objective is to develop and implement acoustic methods of detecting and characterizing organisms that are close to the seabed. Institute of Marine Research (IMR) leads the project, with partners SIMRAD (Norway), CMR (Norway), WHOI (USA) and NMFS (USA).

SEEBED project members from IMR are now on a research cruise with G.O. Sars where the new echo sounder EK80 from SIMRAD is tested. A situation report from the cruise is given at the IMR webpages.
